BO.com 100 Greatest Directors PRESENTATION

Recommended Posts





Based on what it's looking like, some of the higher-profile snubs IMO:Luis Buñuel, Henri-Georges Clouzot, Vittorio De Sica, Carl Theodor Dreyer, Wong Kar Wai, Buster Keaton, Kenji Mizoguchi, Yasujiro Ozu, Pier Paolo Pasolini, Michael Powell & Emeric Pressburger, Satyajit Ray, Jean Renoir, Preston Sturges, Isao Takahata and Luchino Visconti (just missed).

 

Most surprised by Kar Wai and De Sica not making it among that list.

You say that but I think it's obvious that Pier Paolo Pasolini is going to make the Top 5. After all, he's very well known and beloved on these forums.

Most of those names are unknown to 90% of the posters here. :(

There are lots of snubs. Once I see the final list, I may make a post about the snubs. I am debating it.

 

Other than Buster Keaton, I don't think anyone else on Jar Jar's list is a big snub. Guys like John Lasseter, Otto Preminger, Mike Nichols, Robert Wise, M. Night Shyamalan, George Stevens....those are some big snubs.

M. Night, as one of the 100 greatest ever?  :blink:

 

The Sixth Sense, The Village, Signs....his body of work easily puts him in the top 100. He's one of those directors that has a distinct style and an excellent body of work.

 

Edit: And of course Unbreakable. I don't want to forget that movie because it was very well done.
